The Time is Right for Social Work.


Social Work Month in March is a time to celebrate the great profession of social work.

This year the theme for Social Work Month 2022 is The Time is Right for Social Work. 


Sometimes we need someone to be there, not fix anything or do anything, but feel supported and cared about. I've decided to celebrate and feature as social worker by asking my self few questions.


Q. What college I am attending?

- RUB Trainee on Bachelor of arts in social work in Samtse.




Q. Why i decide to join this course? 

- I always felt my God given purpose was helping others. I love that the social work profession stands apart from other helping professions by focusing on the person in environment to address the multifaceted issues impacting a person's quality of life.  



 Q. Coolest thing i've done as an S.W.? 

- Just being a social worker is the coolest thing knowing that I am impacting a person's quality of life. Still, in 2021 during field work course I had experienced and learnt so many new things in life. After living With the people in the remotest village for 6 month and able to build so called good relationship with the villagers. Even when we leave the village they bid us a grand farewell with tearful of emotions while departing. It will be my favorite memory of youth.



Q. Interesting fact? 

- One of my favorite pastimes is singing. When I was younger, I wanted to be a singer, and when I was in primary schools I used to sing during special occasions, second thing I like cooking still I am a bad cook but I m still learning though, I like writing, drawing and of course painting too.

⁣

“I wanted to be a social worker to help people achieve their aspiration. To help people realize their potential. To be an agent of change in my community. To be a voice for others.”


So I want to wish all the social workers around the world " Happy Social Workers Month" to y'll. May god bless us 🙏


Thank You!!!

My first Interview experience at BKF

Today I had my first interview at Bhutan Kidney Foundation for the post of enumerator for one month. I was excited about the opportunity, but also nervous about the interview process. When I arrived, I realized that there were 17 other interviewees, which added to my anxiety. As the interview began, I found myself struggling to express my thoughts into words. I felt like I wasn't able to convey my skills and experience as effectively as I would have liked. Despite my nerves, I tried my best to answer each question to the best of my ability. After the interview, I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in myself. I felt like I could have done better, and that my nerves got the best of me. However, I reminded myself that this was just one interview, and that there are many other opportunities out there. Looking back, I realize that I may have been too hard on myself. It's completely normal to feel nervous during an interview, especially when there are many other candida...

Social workers 🌿

This poem is composed after I return to this college from rural field practicum in 2021.   hope you will enjoy reading!                          A beacon of hope   Amidst the mountains high and grand, Lies a land of peace and serenity, But in its valleys deep and wide, The pain and suffering are plenty. I see the people of Bhutan, Living simple lives with contentment, Yet struggling to access basic needs, Denied by underdevelopment. As I step onto my social work course, My heart swells with determination, To help these kind souls rise and shine, To give them a voice and representation. I plan to work with communities, Listening and learning from their stories, Empowering them with skills and knowledge, To overcome their struggles and worries. I want to help create a world, Where every person has equal chance, To lead a life full of dignity, And live in peace and harmony dance. Though the journey is long and ...

Article review ✨

 The study on the situation of violence against women in Bhutan by NCWC provides insightful information on the state of women's safety in the country. However we could find different viewpoints on the study's findings. On the negative side, the study reveals alarming rates of intimate partner violence and sexual violence against women in Bhutan. For instance, out of the 1,000 women surveyed, nearly 63% reported experiencing at least one form of physical or sexual violence by their partners. Such findings suggest that the government and relevant stakeholders need to take urgent action to address the issue. Failure to do so perpetuates a culture of violence against women and makes it difficult for women to speak out against the abuse.  On the positive side, the study sheds light on the extent of violence against women and provides a much-needed platform for advocacy. The National Commission for Women and Children (NCWC) has taken proactive measures to address the issue, such as ...
